Review on Thrustmaster TH8A Add-On Shifter Wheel Accessories Black/Silver by Stanislaw Kesicki ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

The box as a whole lived up to my expectations. Strong metal. You can oil without fear. The clamp, although slightly bending, fixes the device just as firmly, to match the design itself. The movement of the lever is peculiar. Either with fixation of provisions but quite light - unrealistic. Or if you tighten the adjusting screw, then just the stroke of the lever becomes just very tight and ceases to be fixed in some positions. In fact, in boxes, if you have overcome some middle position of the stroke, then further the lever itself falls into gear if you release it. And it never freezes in the middle. In general, as it turned out, I'm not the only one who annoys me. There are mods on sale (not from Thrustmaster, of course) that solve this problem radically. Already ordered, I'll check it out.

Pros
  • The quality of materials. Versatility - can be used as an H-shifter, sequencer, or handbrake.
Cons
  • Separate USB connection. For some reason, the trustmaster did not want to integrate it into the steering wheel, although everything works for set-top boxes. Lever travel is not the most realistic.
